--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is the use of using MS Word inking to markup a document only to find
that when you start to actually edit the document, the text and the markup
don't stay together? As soon as you begin to change the text, you soon
realize that the markup is really just a graphic overlay that has no reall
connection with the text. For editing to work properly with a marked up
document, the markup must stay "attached" to the words that are marked up!
Otherwise, what use is it? Am I supposed to accept that once a document is
marked up, it should be printed out in order to compare to the original for
further editing? Am I missing something here? I just dropped a couple grand
on a wonderful HP/Compaq tc4200, but it's basically uselss for editing marked
up text in say a chapter of a book. I've tried using PDF files as well, but
no luck. PDF Annotator is neat, but doesn't solve the problem. PenOffice is
slick too, but no solution. Help! I'm about to return this tablet pc and go
back to pen and paper!
